Hello, I am Iyazi , known as Izzy in everyday life, a 17 year old young woman that is yet to see the world. I live in a township in South Africa and I have a dream to connect with people from all corners of the world. I live for early sunrises, winter breezes, summer rays and close-knit relationships. As I approached the end of my schooling career, I realized that the generic university path straight after high school is not for me. Knowledge and experience is all around us, not just in lecture halls and university degrees. Maybe later on in my life I would love to go to college or university to study something out of passion, but as for now, I want to experience life, different walks of life that do not resemble my own. I want to become an au pair to connect with people, connect with cities and connect with life itself. I am young, and full of life, I believe that I want to use my God-given opportunity of youth and love to share it with others, in hopes that they will teach me something new as well. I believe I should be honored to be hosted because I am trustworthy, I adjust well and relatively quickly to change, I am flexible and open to working and assisting to the best of my abilities and to your interests, and having lived in multiple boarding schools here in South Africa has taught me to be punctual, perform hygienic house and personal skills, and ability to live with people with different views, lives and beliefs from myself. Being the oldest of four children, I have developed the skill to be the "deputy parent", a blessing that has helped me to care for children, pets and older people alike. I qualify for this position because I will uphold it with passion and gratitude, and I have shown, through my lived experience, that I am able to live and care for others.
